"Zhuangzhuang, you still can't understand these words of Sister A! When you grow up in the future, see more, and know more, you will be able to know the true meaning of Sister's sentence to change the living environment of our family! Xiao Ju looked at her mother and Zhuang Zhuang with a puzzled expression, and finally just sighed secretly.

Xiao Juniang grew up in a poor peasant family since she was a child, and in this era, in the peasant family, not to mention women, even men could not afford to read. As long as the children of the peasant family are old enough to do the work, they have to start helping the family to do the work that they can do. Like boys, they have to go to collect firewood to raise sheep and cattle, and girls have to help the family collect pigweed to feed chickens and ducks. Since I was a child, I had to work hard to find out how to survive and be able to eat well. Xiao Ju Niang, who grew up in this environment, naturally has a wide vision and can't read big words, how does this make her understand Xiao Ju's words?

As for Zhuang Zhuang, he is so old, except for the past few years he has eaten three meals with Xiaoju, but he was on the verge of starvation in those years in Hujiazhuang. In his memory, as long as there is food, it may be the happiest thing in life. How can he understand Xiaoju's requirements and desires for the quality of life?

"Sister, I'll grow up quickly!" Zhuang Zhuang felt that Xiao Ju at this time was obviously far away from him, his heart panicked, and he hurriedly opened his mouth to reassure Xiao Ju.

"Silly and strong!" Xiao Ju just reached out and touched Cuo Zhuangzhuang's head, and didn't say anything more. Yes, her life experience is so peculiar, unless there are people who are reborn with the same memories of her past life as she are. It's impossible to find someone who can completely resonate with her thoughts! For the first time, Xiaoju felt that she was so lonely in this world!

Xiaoju's family thinks that he and He Yuanyuan's family just met by chance at the station, and the life trajectories of these two families will no longer intersect in the future, after all, no matter how the two families compare, there is no similarity. But how can the things of the world be explained?

After a day at the Beiping Railway Station, Xiaoju's family finally squeezed into the train they bought from Beiping to Shanghai. Xiao Ju originally wanted to buy a first-class car, but after looking at her family's dusty clothes, she finally dispelled that idea. In this day and age, it's safer to blend into an environment that matches who you are currently pretending to be.

A few hours later, Xiaoju's family finally arrived in Shanghai. After Xiao Ju got off the train, she didn't rush to find the uncle Chang Baogui according to the address given by Lawson. Instead, he took his mother and Zhuang Zhuang to find a home near the train station, and lived in an inn that looked good on the outside.

Xiaoju's family rested at this inn for two days. At the same time, Xiao Ju Niang and Zhuang Zhuang also cleaned up according to Xiao Ju's request. Changed into the good clothes that Xiaoju bought in the mall near the Shanghai Railway Station. As for Xiaoju, she had already cleaned herself up from head to toe and wore a lady's dress.

As for those few earthen cloth bags, they had already been thrown into a small space by Xiao Ju. I changed into a small suitcase that I just bought from the mall. The Xiaoju family who changed their costumes. When leaving the inn. almost made the innkeeper's eyes come out of his sockets, and the three country buns became three city people dressed up in a blink of an eye, and they looked like that. But then the innkeeper was relieved, and now there is chaos everywhere, and it is also common for rich people to go out and pretend to be poor countrymen.

Wearing a white shirt and a black suit, Zhuang Zhuang looked like an elegant little gentleman, and when he used to go to school in Wuhan, Zhuang Zhuang wore similar clothes, so he didn't feel awkward. As for Xiao Ju Niang, Xiao Ju bought her a cotton cheongsam with an ordinary style but exquisite workmanship, of course, it is not the kind of cheongsam with high forks worn by Hu Baobao, or the style worn by ordinary people who can be seen everywhere on the streets of Shanghai.

It's a pity that Xiao Ju Niang has grown so big, and she has never worn this kind of clothes that show a small leg section, so as soon as she walked out of the inn, she felt uncomfortable, and the pair of black leather shoes on her feet also made Xiao Ju Niang feel very uncomfortable walking, and it was much more comfortable to wear her own cloth shoes.

"Xiaoju, why are we dressed like this? I feel uncomfortable and uncomfortable! And it's not easy to walk! "Xiao Juniang usually wears the kind of loose hexagram wide pants worn by country women, how can she practice this kind of cheongsam that restricts people's bodies? No, it's not far from the inn, and I almost fell on the flat road!

"Mother, today we are going to find Luo Dad's cousin! If you wear it too worn, it will make Luo Dad lose face! Xiao Ju paused, after all, he didn't say that Lawson's cousin might be a rich family, if he was too worn, he wouldn't even be able to enter the door, let alone see people. Otherwise, with her mother's character, she would definitely be timid before she went.

Xiao Ju stood on the side of the street in front of the inn and beckoned two rickshaws, then took out the note with Lawson's address written on it and showed it to one of the rickshaw drivers, while the other rickshaw driver also pulled the cart and looked at it.

"Miss, we can't read!" After staring at the words on the note for a long time, the first rickshaw driver said with a shameful face. Xiaoju then woke up to the fact that this was not the era when everyone was literate in the previous life, only literate people could read in this era, not these rickshaw drivers who came and went in the wind and rain.

"Pull us to No. 113 Fuxing West Road!" Xiao Ju glanced at the address on the note, and said with humility on her face. Although she inadvertently hurt the hearts of the two lowest people living in this era, she did make a mistake that should not be made.

"Great! The place is a little far from here, Madame and Miss Childe are seated! "These two coachmen solicit customers on the street all day long, and they have never seen such a polite guest as Xiaoju, not to mention that the people who can read and write in this era are a minority, and the people who live in the same environment as them are illiterate from generation to generation! It's not easy to survive, and in a family like them, which family has the spare money to provide for their children to study? So their shame for their illiteracy disappeared in a flash, and they didn't feel that their self-esteem was hurt, and Xiao Ju's politeness at this time made them a little flattered.

Xiao Ju sat in a rickshaw, and the rickshaw driver pulled Xiao Ju and began to run along the busiest street in Shanghai, while Xiao Ju Niang and Zhuang Zhuang sat in another rickshaw, following behind the car Xiao Ju was sitting in.

At this time, Shanghai was not prosperous as Xiaoju imagined, but was depressed everywhere. Many pedestrians on the street were carrying bulging noodle bags, and many more pedestrians were hurrying, and in some places there seemed to be police and gendarmes armed with guns under martial law, which made Xiaoju feel that there was an unstable storm in the sky over Shanghai. The rickshaw driver quickly made a detour when he saw the police and gendarmes in the distance. This increased Xiaoju's curiosity.

"Master, is there something big going on in those places surrounded by police and gendarmes?" After Xiao Juzai the rickshaw driver once again bypassed the place where there were police and military police, he finally couldn't help but ask.

"Miss, you've just come to Shanghai, right? There are a lot of big things happening in Shanghai this year! In January, tens of thousands of students organized an anti-American movement to overthrow Chiang, and in July there was another bloody case in Jindu, and now I heard that this case has alarmed the officials of the national central government! And in August, there was another gold robbery and murder! I heard that the British and American soldiers did it! "The driver of the rickshaw that pulled Xiaoju is a thin but sturdy young man in his twenties, who is also a talkative person, and usually loves to gossip about all kinds of big and small things that he knows about the streets, not to mention these well-known events that happened in Shanghai this year? Therefore, Xiaoju's question immediately made him open the switch.

When Xiao Ju heard this, she immediately became interested. For these things, she did not dabble in her previous life. I couldn't help but say, "Could it be that those police and gendarmes who look murderous from a distance are sent to the streets because of the unrest in Shanghai this year, and the authorities have sent them to the streets in order to stabilize the situation and law and order in Shanghai?" ”

"Miss, you're wrong!" The lean rickshaw driver also came to talk at this time, and the pace of pulling the car and speeding down couldn't help but slow down.

"Oh, isn't it? What is the reason for the police and gendarmes with guns coming and going from time to time in the streets? Xiao Ju was even more curious now.

"Miss, I just told you that there was a bloody case in Shanghai in July? This Jindu bloody case refers to the incident of the police and gendarmes in Shanghai fighting at the Jindu Grand Theater on July 27! The scene at that time was terrible, there was a gunshot outside the theater, and after the gunshot, I heard that a corpse was lying at the door of the theater, and it was really a river of blood! The lean rickshaw driver said as if he had seen it with his own eyes, his face was full of excitement, and his tone was even more excited, which made Xiaoju feel a little speechless. When did the Chinese people become so bold? Even the police and gendarmes dare to go to the scene to watch?

"Then why did the Shanghai police and gendarmes fight? You don't have to rush to the road, I'll pay double the fare! Xiao Ju also wanted to learn about the situation in Shanghai from the mouth of the talkative rickshaw driver in front of her, and wanted to know what was going on with the Jindu bloody case, after all, she planned to take her mother and Zhuang Zhuang to settle in Shanghai, and the Shanghai police are the head snakes in Shanghai, as for those military police, Xiao Ju wants to ask what the origin is, why do you dare to fight against the Shanghai police, what is the background! When living in Shanghai like this, it is better to avoid these people who can't be offended and can't afford to offend.

When the lean rickshaw driver heard that Xiao Ju would pay him double the fare, he was overjoyed, but then he asked again, "I don't want paper money, I want silver dollars, okay?" ”

"No problem! But why not paper money? Isn't it easier to carry banknotes? Xiao Ju asked a little puzzled. This silver dollar is like a coin in the previous life, it is really easy to drop it on the body, but paper money does not have that kind of risk. Therefore, the coins of the previous life gradually faded out of the people's lives. But the driver in front of him asked Xiao Ju to pay the fare with silver dollars, which aroused Xiao Ju's other curiosity. Because she took her mother and Zhuang Zhuang all the way to Shanghai, all she spent on the way were silver dollars, and she really didn't know why the paper money was boycotted by the people.
